I will be running a Game of Ice and Fire event on Saturday evening (its a combination of DBA 3.0 + HOTT but with only elements drawn from George RR Martin's Song of Ice and Fire).

It will run 7:00pm until exhaustion.

Feel free to bring your own Ice and Fire armies in 25-28mm.

If you want a copy of the rules contact me at tomandkate@aol.com.

A Game of Ice and Fire
Command one of the great houses of Westeros and win the Iron Throne. Each player will choose one great house and then assemble a coalition of other houses to do battle for the Iron Throne. A series of linked battles with new coalitions forming behind either the current king or latest pretender will determine the eventual winner. An ally in one game may be a mortal enemy in the next.

Each battle will be played out using A Game of Ice and Fire (a variant of De Bellis Antiquitatis – DBA), a quick play system of medieval war. The game is easy to learn and beginners are welcome. Figures representing Lannisters, Greyjoys, Starks, Baratheons, Freys, Tullys, Martells and many others will be provided. Battles will take about 90 minutes to resolve and players can participate in as many battles as they wish.
